There was a time only a few years back when live music venues in downtown San Jose were few and far between. Now, it seems like there's a new one opening up every other month, and the latest is the Back Bar. Old school San Jose music junkies will appreciate that it occupies the back portion of the space where the Cactus Club once reigned supreme. (Though, unlike the Cactus, it is 21+). Kicking things off for the opening show will be Shawn Packer from local country-punk group the Shitkickers, along with San Jose ex-pats, Trashkannon, who play some of the loudest, most obnoxious punk rock San Jose (and now San Diego) have ever heard.
